The drivers that use this module with memory mapped io all have the

Modify subdev_8255_io() to handle the memory mapped io. This allows
removing the private callbacks from some of the drivers.

What if a driver sets both dev->mmio and dev->iobase, but has the 8255
in the dev->iobase region? Is it reasonable for the driver to "know"
that dev->mmio would be used by the 8255 subdevice driver and so it
would need to implement a callback for an 8255 in the dev->iobase region?
I think the 8255 code needs to be explicitly told whether to use
dev->iobase or dev->mmio if it handles both. That could be done either
by adding a parameter to subdev_8255_init() (and subdev_8255_init_irq(),
though that could be removed as interrupt support is incomplete and
nothing has ever used it), or by exporting a separate init function
(e.g. subdev_8255_mm_init()) to mark it as using dev->mmio.
